For the second consecutive year, more than twenty-five staff members from the D. Ray James Correctional Facility (DRJCF) participated in a 5K run in support of CASA’s Camden County, Georgia chapter.
This year’s event raised over $5,600 for this non-profit program. Locally, this program serves many of the children in Camden County.
Robyn Cross, Health Services Administrator at DRJCF, has been a sitting board member for the Camden County chapter for the last four years and is the primary organizer for this fund raising event.
Every day in the United States, 1,900 children become victims of abuse or neglect. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) for Children is a network of community-based programs that recruit, train and support citizen-volunteers to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children in courtrooms and communities.
